In the month of March, with great weather, is the first of the religious trips organized by the CARF Foundation.
The pilgrimage takes place in two groups of 50 people each, departing on two different days in March. They are led by the best guides in the Holy Land, the Franciscans, custodians of the Holy Places by the will and mandate of the Pope for eight centuries. The week-long program includes visits to Nazareth, the Sea of Galilee, the Jordan River, the Judean desert, Bethany, Bethlehem, Saxum, as well as the many places in Jerusalem where Jesus was present.
The month of October brings the CARF pilgrimages to an end. For six days, and staying in a charming residence in the Vatican, the pilgrims develop a plan that begins with the public audience with the Pope; continue with visits to outstanding places in Rome including those where relics of Christianity are found as the tomb of St. Peter; and ends knowing the places where priests from around the world are trained, such as the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross or the seminary Sedes Sapientiae. All this without neglecting the gastronomy with a dinner on a terrace of the mythical Piazza Navona or walks through the eternal city.
